I've had people give me odd looks why I tell them I eat hemp seeds. They give me even stranger looks when I tell them that my kids eat it to. I'm going to come out, and say it, you do not eat hemp seed and get high.

They taste similar to sunflower seeds only smaller, soft and buttery! That's why I love it on my salad.

A Superfood

Super Hemp seed is considered by many nutritionists as
nature's most perfect food. It contains the a perfect 3:1 balance of omega-3 and omega-6 essential fatty acids. These
fatty acids promote heart health, lower triglycerides, work to reduce
inflammation, promote brain health, and support the immune system. Low
in carbohydrates, hemp seeds are ideal for those following the paleo
diet or who need to be carb conscious for their health.

This superfood delivers a power-punch of complete
proteins, making it a great addition to vegan and vegetarian diets. In
fact, Super Hemp delivers 10g of easily digestable plant-based protein
per 1 oz serving. Compare that to 6g protein in one large hard boiled
egg.

One thing we really struggle with is filling our boys up. Mica hates eggs. We want him to have some protein of some kind in the morning. Hemp seeds are perfect.

For snack time I added help Super Hemp to Zucchini Brownies.

Everyone in my family loved them!

Bake 350 degrees in a 9x9 pan for 30-40 minutes, or until a toothpick is inserted, and comes out clean.

Ingredients:

1 1/2 cups coconut sugar (or brown sugar)

1 egg

2/3 cup coconut oil, melted

2 tsp vanilla

1/4 cup oatmeal

1/2 cup cocoa powder

1 tsp salt

1 tsp baking soda

2 cups shredded zucchini (do not drain)

1 cup chocolate chips

4 ounces Super Hemp

I didn't hear, "I'm hungry!" after the boys ate their brownies.

They must have gotten filled up.

Super Facts:
